This might be the pick-me-up that Jose Aldo needs.
The former UFC featherweight champion was viciously knocked out by Conor McGregor on Saturday night and was left visibly heartbroken. https://www.instagram.com/p/_ZJxKem2Ur/?taken-by=teamnovauniao Having previously been the only man to hold the 145 lb belt in the UFC, there was never any real danger that Aldo's fans would abandon him and they gave him a hero's welcome as he returned home to Rio de Janeiro. https://www.instagram.com/p/_ZHjWpm2Qn/?taken-by=teamnovauniao Sporting a Chelsea jersey, Aldo presumably hadn't heard the Mourinho news as he posed for pictures and was hoisted aloft by Nova Uniao teammates before being presented with a banner that read "We may not have gotten the victory, but we all still love you. Thanks again!"
